TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to temperature sensors, and more particularly, to heat radiation-resistant NTC temperature sensors and applications thereof.

BACKGROUND

NTC temperature sensors are sensors which perform temperature measurements using a principle that a resistance of a conductor or a semiconductor varies as its temperature varies. In order to improve the accuracy of the measurement of a temperature of a planar object to be measured having a heat source by an NTC temperature sensor, a housing of the NTC temperature sensor is designed to be a plane. Whether a thermistor is in close contact with the housing of the NTC temperature sensor is an important factor which influences a reaction speed of the NTC temperature sensor. In an existing NTC temperature sensor, the thermistor is filled and sealed in an ordinary metal housing by using epoxy resin. Such a filling and sealing method has some shortcomings, for example, it cannot guarantee that the thermistor is in close contact with the inner side of the housing, resulting in a poor thermal conductivity effect, and thus failing to guarantee that the NTC temperature sensor timely reflects a change in the ambient temperature. Further, when the existing NTC temperature sensor measures a temperature of an object, heat radiated by heat sources around the object to be measured will affect the measurement result of the NTC temperature sensor, thereby resulting in inaccurate measurement.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

It should be illustrated that, embodiments in the present application and features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict. The present disclosure will be further described below with reference to accompanying drawings.

In a first embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, a heat radiation-resistant NTC temperature sensor comprises a heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1 which is in contact with a plane of an object to be measured. A cavity 11 for accommodating a thermistor 2 is provided in an axial direction of the heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1, and the thermistor 2 is in close contact with an upper wall of the cavity 11 of the heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1. The thermistor 2 is connected to an external control board through a wire 8.

The heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1 comprises a metal part 18 and an injection-molded part 17. The metal part 18 is embedded in the center of the injection-molded part 17, and has an upper surface located in the same plane as the upper surface of the injection-molded part 17. The metal part 18 is made of stainless steel, iron, copper, aluminum, or alloy material, and the injection-molded part 17 is made of plastic, ceramic, bakelite, insulation plate, or glass material.

The heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1 further comprises a stop ring 7 for fixing the position of the sensor. The stop ring 7 is made of plastic, ceramic, bakelite, insulation plate, or glass. The temperature measuring plane of the heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1 has a diameter less than 40 mm and greater than 3 mm.

As the metal part 18 of the measurement rod 1 which is used for temperature measurement is wrapped by the injection-molded part 17, when an object to be measured is pressed against the heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1 during the temperature measurement, heat radiated from heat sources around the object to be measured is mostly isolated by the injection-molded part surrounding the metal part 18, which effectively prevents the heat radiated from the heat sources around the object to be measured from affecting temperature measurement by the thermistor.

In a second embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2, a multi-heat-radiation-resistant NTC temperature sensor (which may be used for a pan bottom) comprises a heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1 which is in contact with a plane of an object to be measured. A cavity 11 for accommodating a thermistor 2 is provided in the axial direction of the heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1, and the thermistor 2 is in close contact with the upper wall of the cavity 11 of the heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1. The thermistor 2 is connected to an external control board through a wire 8. An injection-molded part 17 has a screw tooth 19 provided on a tail thereof.

The heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1 comprises a metal part 18 and the injection-molded part 17. The metal part 18 is embedded in the center of the injection-molded part. The metal part 18 and the injection-molded part 17 are formed into a metal plane with the metal part 18 being located above the injection-molded part 17. The metal part 18 is made of stainless steel, iron, copper, aluminum, or alloy material. The injection-molded part 17 is made of plastic, ceramic, bakelite, insulation plate, or glass material. The temperature measuring plane of the heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1 has a diameter less than 40 mm and greater than 3 mm. An upper end layer of the metal part has a thickness greater than 0 mm and less than 4 mm.

During installation, the multi-heat-radiation-resistant NTC temperature sensor (which may be used for a pan bottom) is passed through a hole at the bottom of the object to be measured, and an upper end of the metal part 18 is stuck in the hole at the bottom of the object to be measured and is fastened with a screw nut. As the injection-molded part 17 wraps around other portions of the metal part 18, during the temperature measurement, a temperature measuring plane of the heat radiation-resistant NTC temperature sensor directly senses the temperature of the object to be measured, while the heat radiation-resistant ring isolates the heat sources around the object to be measured from affecting the radiation for temperature measurement.

In a third embodiment, as shown in FIG. 3, a heat radiation-resistant NTC temperature sensor comprises a heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1, a metal upper cover 21, a thermal insulation rubber pad 22, and a thermistor 2 connected to an external control board. The heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1 comprises a left portion 1A and a right portion 1B which are snap-fitted together. The heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1 is provided with a cavity, which has the thermal insulation rubber pad 22 adhered therein. The thermal insulation rubber pad 22 is formed in a shape of the thermistor 2 through molding. The metal upper cover 21 has an electrical insulation film 24 attached on an inner side thereof. Then, the thermistor 2 and the heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1 are clamped together.

In this embodiment, the thermistor 2 is fixed in the thermal insulation rubber pad 22, and is then fixedly connected to the heat-radiation resistant measurement rod 1 with the metal upper cover 21 by means of a snap fit 25.

The metal upper cover 21 has two electrical insulation film layers 24 provided therein for the purpose of safety. When the thermistor 2 is connected to a high voltage, each electrical insulation film layer 24 can be subjected to a high voltage of 1750V so as to meet the requirements for reinforced insulation. In this way, the metal upper cover 21 can be prevented from being electrically connected to the high voltage at any time. Further, the length of the metal upper cover 21 can be controlled to reduce the reaction speed of the outside to the thermistor 2.

When the metal upper cover 21 holds the heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1, the thermal insulation rubber pad 22, and the thermistor 2 together, the thermal insulation rubber pad 22 plays a cushioning effect on the thermistor 2 to guarantee that the thermistor 2 will not crushed.

In a fourth embodiment, as shown in FIG. 4, a heat radiation-resistant NTC temperature sensor comprises a heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1, a metal upper cover 21, a thermal insulation rubber pad 22, and a thermistor 2 connected to an external control board. The heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1 comprises a left portion 1A and a right portion 1B which are snap-fitted together. The heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1 is provided with a cavity, which has a thermal insulation rubber pad 22 adhered therein. The thermal insulation rubber pad 22 is provided with a groove for accommodating the thermistor 2. The metal upper cover 21 has an electrical insulation body 23 attached on an inner side thereof. Then, the metal upper cover 21 and the heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1 which has a built-in thermistor 2 are clamped together.

In this embodiment, the thermistor 2 is fixed in the thermal insulation rubber pad 22, and is then fixedly connected to the heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1 with the metal upper cover 21 by means of a snap fit 25.

The metal upper cover 21 has a single, electrical insulation body layer of 2 mm provided therein for the purpose of safety. When the thermistor 2 is connected to a high voltage, the single, electrical insulation body layer of 2 mm can be subjected to a high voltage of 3500V. In this way, the metal upper cover 21 can be prevented from being electrically connected to the high voltage at any time. Further, the length of the metal upper cover 21 can be controlled to reduce a reaction speed of the outside to the thermistor 2.

When the metal upper cover 21 holds the heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1, the insulating rubber pad 22, and the thermistor 2 together, the thermal insulation rubber pad 22 plays a cushioning effect on the thermistor 2 to guarantee that the thermistor 2 is not crushed.

In a fifth embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5, a multi-heat-radiation-resistant NTC temperature sensor (which may be used for a pan bottom) comprises a measurement rod 1 which is in contact with a plane of an object to be measured, an upper case 3, a lower case 4, and a compression spring 6. The measurement rod 1 further comprises a stop ring 7 provided in a circumferential direction. A cavity 11 for accommodating a thermistor 2 is provided in the axial direction of the measurement rod 1, and the thermistor 2 is in close contact with the upper wall of the temperature measuring plane of the measurement rod 1. The thermistor 2 is connected to an external measurement apparatus through a wire 8. The measurement rod 1 is stuck in an accommodating cavity 12 formed by the upper case 3 and the lower case 4, and may move freely in the accommodating cavity 12. The measurement rod 1 is sleeved by a spring 6 which is stuck between the stop ring 7 and the lower case 4.

During the temperature measurement, the plane of the measurement rod 1 which is in contact with the object to be measured forms a temperature measuring plane. When the object to be measured is pressed against the plane of the measurement rod 1, under the action of the gravity of the object to be measured and the spring 6, the measurement rod 1 is compressed to be flush with a stopper 5, and is in close contact with the object to be measured. As the stopper 5 of the upper case of insulation material is in the same plane as the metal measurement rod 1, the stopper 5 of the upper case of insulation material prevents the influence of the surrounding heat radiation on the metal measurement rod. The spring ensures that the measurement rod and the plane of the object to be measured are in good contact, so that the temperature of the object to be measured will be accurately measured.

In this example, the multi-heat-radiation-resistant NTC temperature sensor (which may be used for a pan bottom) further comprises the upper case 3 provided on a periphery of the measurement rod 1. The upper case 3 is made of insulation material. There is a gap between the measurement rod 1 and the upper case 3, wherein the gap is greater than 0.1 mm and less than the diameter of the stop ring 7 which is 15 mm. The upper case 3 has a thickness less than 10 mm and greater than 1 mm. The stop ring 7 is a metal ring part and is tightly fitted to the measurement rod 1.

In this example, the measurement rod 1 is a metal cutting part or a casting part, and is made of copper, aluminum, iron, or alloy material.

In this example, the upper case 3 is provided with snap fits 9, the lower case 4 is provided with positioning holes 10, and the upper case 3 and the lower case 4 are detachably connected by means of the snap fits 9 and the positioning holes 10. The temperature measuring plane of the measurement rod 1 has a diameter less than 40 mm and greater than 3 mm.

In a sixth embodiment, as shown in FIG. 6, this embodiment differs from the fifth embodiment in that this embodiment further comprises a reed switch 14 connected in series with a pin of the thermistor 2, the lower case 4 has a snap groove 15 provided therein, and a magnet block 16 is fixed to the snap groove 15; the measurement rod 1 is injection-molded using metal and plastic by means of a die, and the stop ring 7 is injection-molded using plastic; and the thermistor 2 is in close contact with the upper wall of the cavity 11 of the measurement rod 1.

The temperature measurement principle of the multi-heat-radiation-resistant NTC temperature sensor (which may be used for a pan bottom) is as follows. The thermistor 2 is filled and sealed in the cavity 11 through epoxy resin, and has a pin connected in series with the reed switch 14. Under the action of the gravity of the object to be measured, the measurement rod 1 moves downward, the distance between the reed switch 14 and the magnet block 16 is shortened during the downward movement of the measurement rod 1 and the reed switch 14 becomes a closed circuit from an open circuit. In this way, the measurement of the temperature of the object to be measured is transferred to the external control board through the wire 8. During the temperature measurement, the stopper 5 of the upper case and the measurement rod 1 are in the same plane, and the stopper 5 of the upper case of insulation material prevents the influence of the surrounding heat radiation on the measurement rod 1. The spring 6 ensures that the measurement rod and the plane of the object to be measured are in good contact, so that the temperature of the object to be measured will be accurately measured.

In this example, the stop ring 7 is die-casted with ceramic or is injection-molded with plastic, and the measurement rod 1 is injection-molded with metal and plastic or glass by means of a die. Similarly, the measurement rod 1 may also be formed by tightly fitting a metal cutting part with plastic, bakelite, or an insulation plate.

In this example, there is a gap between the measurement rod 1 and the upper case 3. The gap is greater than 0.1 mm and less than the diameter of the stop ring 7 which is 15 mm. The upper case 3 is made of insulation material, and has a thickness less than 10 mm and greater than 1 mm. The stop ring 7 is a metal ring part and is tightly fitted to the measurement rod 1.

In this example, the upper case 3 is provided with snap fits 9, the lower case 4 is provided with positioning holes 10, and the upper case 3 and the lower case 4 are detachably connected by means of the snap fits 9 and the positioning holes 10. The temperature measuring plane of the measurement rod 1 has a diameter less than 40 mm and greater than 3 mm. The measurement rod 1 has a ground wire 13 provided on the lower end thereof.

In a seventh embodiment, as shown in FIG. 7, this embodiment differs from the fifth embodiment in that the upper case 3 and the lower case 4 are made of metal material.

In this example, as the upper case 3 is made of metal material, the heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1 comprises a metal part 18 and an injection part 17. The metal part 18 is wrapped by the injection part 17. When the object to be measured is pressed against the heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1, the spring 6 ensures that the measurement rod 1 and the plane of the object to be measured are in good contact, so that the temperature of the object to be measured will be accurately measured.

The temperature measurement principle of the multi-heat-radiation-resistant NTC temperature sensor (which may be used for a pan bottom) is as follows. As shown in FIG. 7A, when the heat radiation-resistant NTC temperature sensor for a pan bottom is fixed onto a heating plate, the lower case 4 is connected to the housing of the object to be measured, i.e., being connected to the ground wire. A metal clamp 13 of the heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1 which has a ground plug is fixed to the tail of the heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1. When no pan is pressed against the heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1, the metal clamp 13 and the lower case 4 remain in contact and are conductive. As the ground plug of the metal clamp 13 is connected to the ground wire, the input terminal of the thermistor 2 is connected to the metal clamp 13, the metal clamp 13 is connected to the lower case 4 and the lower case 4 is connected to the ground wire. In this way, the thermistor 2 is short-circuited and is connected to the ground. When a pan is pressed against the heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1, the spring 6 is pressed down so that the heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1 is pressed down, the metal clamp 13 is separated from the lower case 4, the short circuit is automatically released, and the resistance value of the thermistor 2 can be measured normally.

In this example, the upper case 3 is provided with snap fits 9, the lower case 4 is provided with positioning holes 10, and the upper case 3 and the lower case 4 are detachably connected through the snap fits 9 and the positioning holes 10. The temperature measuring plane of the heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1 has a diameter less than 40 mm and greater than 3 mm. The metal upper case 3 has a thickness less than 3 mm and greater than 0.1 mm. There is a gap between the heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1 and the metal upper case 3. The gap is greater than 0.1 mm and less than the diameter of the stop ring 7 which is 15 mm.

In this example, the heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1 comprises a metal part 18 and an injection-molded part 17. The heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1 is formed by tightly fitting the metal part 18 and the injection-molded part 17 by means of a die. The stop ring 7 is die-casted with ceramic. Similarly, the heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1 may also be formed by tightly fitting a metal cutting part with bakelite or an insulation plate, or is injection-molded with metal and plastic, ceramic, or glass by means of a die.

In an eighth embodiment, as shown in FIG. 8, this embodiment differs from the seventh embodiment in that in this embodiment, the upper case 3 is made of insulation material and the lower case is made of metal material.

The upper case 3 is made of insulation material, and the metal part 18 of the measurement rod 1 which is used for temperature measurement is wrapped by the injection part 17. When the object to be measured is pressed against the heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1, as the stopper 5 and the temperature measuring plane of the heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1 are located in the same plane, the upper case 3 and the stopper 5 prevent the influence of the surrounding heat radiation on the heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1. Further, the heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1 per se provides a heat radiation-resistant function. In this way, the surrounding heat radiation will be isolated twice. The spring 6 ensures that the heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1 and the plane of the object to be measured are in good contact, so that the temperature of the object to be measured is extremely accurately measured.

The temperature measurement principle of the multi-heat-radiation-resistant NTC temperature sensor (which may be used for a pan bottom) is as follows. As shown in FIGS. 8 and 8A, when the heat radiation-resistant NTC temperature sensor for a pan bottom is fixed onto a heating plate, the lower case 4 is connected to the housing of the object to be measured, i.e., being connected to the ground wire. A metal clamp 13 of the heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1 which has a ground plug is fixed to the tail of the heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1. When no pan is pressed against the heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1, the metal clamp 13 and the lower case 4 remain in contact and are conductive. In this way, an input terminal of the thermistor 2 is connected to the metal clamp 13, the metal clamp 13 is connected to the lower case 4 and the lower case 4 is connected to the ground wire, so that the thermistor 2 is short-circuited and is connected to the ground. When there is a pan pressed against the heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1, the spring 6 is pressed down so that the heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1 is pressed down, the metal clamp 13 is separated from the lower case 4, the short circuit is automatically released, and the resistance value of the thermistor 2 can be measured normally.

In this example, the heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1 is die-casted with metal and ceramic, and the stop ring 7 is die-casted with ceramic or injection-molded with plastic. Similarly, the heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1 may be formed by tightly fitting a metal cutting part with bakelite or an insulating plate, or is injection-molded with metal and plastic or glass by means of a die.

In this example, the upper case 3 is provided with snap fits 9, the lower case 4 is provided with positioning holes 10, and the upper case 3 and the lower case 4 are detachably connected by means of the snap fits 9 and the positioning holes 10. The temperature measuring plane of the heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1 has a diameter less than 40 mm and greater than 3 mm. The metal upper case 3 is made of insulation material, and has a thickness less than 10 mm and greater than 1 mm. There is a gap between the heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1 and the metal upper case 3. The gap is greater than 0.1 mm and less than a diameter of the stop ring 7 which is 15 mm.

FIG. 9 is an exploded view of a multi-heat-radiation-resistant NTC temperature sensor (which may be used for a pan bottom), which comprises a heat radiation-resistant measurement rod 1, a thermistor 2, an upper case 3, a lower case 4, a stopper 5, a spring 6, a wire 8, snap fits 9, and positioning holes 10.
